pluff mud (noun)—A mixture of dirt and water indigenous to the marshes of the South Carolina Low Country, with a distinct odor that’s endearing to locals but off-putting to others.
Charleston, South Carolina’s Holy City Brewing’s second flagship beer was an effort to bring the American porter style to the Charleston market proper, while also making a beer that stays appealing as the mercury rises. Pluff Mud Porter presents (and smells) like a classic porter, with subtle chocolate notes and a silky finish, but the medium body and tame ABV keep it refreshing at all times.
